(M & W) Consider a residential area and two shopping centers that are possible destinations. From 7-8 PM on Friday night, 950 shopping vehicle trips leave the residential area for the two shopping centers. A joint shopping-trip mode-destination choice logit model is estimated and is given the following coefficients.

Auto coefficiient Bus coefficient
Constant 0.55 0.00
Travel time(min) -0.31 -0.35
Commercial floor space at destination 0.0125 0.0125
Auto travel time(min) Bus travel time(min)
To shopping center 1 9 15
To shopping center 2 14 20

If shopping centers 1 and 2 have 245,000 ft2 and 420,000 ft2 of commercial floor space, respectively, determine the distribution of Friday night shopping trips by destination and mode. (Hint: Your choice set in this MNL model is four: 1) to center 1 by auto; 2) to center 1 by bus; 3) to center 2 by auto; and 4) to center 2 by bus.)

From your observation at your own residential area or your accommodation buildings, identify the current building features that need to be changed or to be constructed new in order to conform to Green Building Index. The features should include the following GBI criteria, i.e. Energy Efficiency (EE), Indoor Environment Quality (EQ), Sustainable Site Planning & MANAGEMENT (SM), Materials & Resources (MR), Water Efficiency (WE), Innovation (IN).

Consider a message signal m(t) with bandwidth W = 5.86 kHz. This signal is applied to a product modulator, together with a carrier wave c t = cos(210000πt) producing the DSB-SC modulated wave s(t). This modulated wave is next applied to a coherent detector producing an output signal y(t). The coherent detector consists of a product modulator that multiplies s(t) by c r = 2cos(222000πt) and a low pass filter which has a cut off frequency 21 kHz. The output...

Consider two systems: M/M/1 and M/M/1/k. There are two types of costs associated: (i) a rejection cost r (cost per rejection); and (ii) a holding-cost rate h (cost per unit time per customer in system). Note that there is no rejection in M/M/1. Assuming ρ<1 for both systems, what is the condition for k that makes the M/M/1/k better than M/M/1. Simplify your answer as far as possible

Consider a residential building with 5 floors with two homes at every flat each having 3 m height. You want to design such a piping system that provides the same mass flow rate to all floors with same outlet pressure. Come up with such a piping system that uses only one pump for the whole installment. Draw your system, make your assumptions, and show your results with a case study.

At our distance from the Sun, the intensity of solar radiation is 1370 W/m^2. As discussed in class and in the textbook, the temperature of the Earth is affected by the greenhouse effect of the atmosphere. This phenomenon describes the effect of absorption of infrared radiation by the surface so as to make the surface temperature of the Earth higher than if it were airless. The average global surface temperature of the Earth is ~288 K. Calculate the surface temperature...
